Disappointing
Pros: A softer than expected feel under the finger which I suspect is due to the carbon steel material which flexes more than the harder chrome steel E strings.
Cons: Not enough projection as I was hoping for, not clear in high register and not the right balance of tension and projection.

Pros: Great string. Rich and quite loud ( but not as loud as Evah's) they go with dominant really well.
Cons: Not very very durable and gut, so you have to frequently tune it.
Other: Melos rosin goes very well with this. I use light.

Pros: Nice tone from this string, it settled quite quickly without need for constant tuning. It has quite a mellow tone for an E string, neither whistling nor sounding tinny.
Cons: The only con is that I did not try this string sooner!!

Pros: An excellent E string to compliment a G,D&A set of Larsens. Gone are any traces of 'wolf' notes or harshness from the E string and in its place a full, rich tone but still with plenty of attack. A string that is very satisfying to play and hear.
Cons: Nothing.

Pros: It is the best metal 'E' violin string I have tried out so far. It achieves a reasonably warm sound and therefore is less of a contrast between the other strings. It stays in tune more than the rest, and is very competitively priced.
Cons: Nothing
Other: None
